Happy 4th Of July!

From our Goodwill Family to yours, we wish you a safe and happy Independence Day. In honor of the holiday, many Goodwill Retail Stores will have shorter hours so that our employees can also enjoy the holiday. Please check with your local store to see their exact hours.

Guest Bloggers will return next Friday, with a fresh round of fabulous fashionistas. Know anyone (including you) who should be featured on a Friday? Hit us up at fashion@dcgoodwill.org.

Finally, look for a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT next week on this blog. Like Sam Cooke said, "But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will..."
